Ear infections are crappy

This is at the Ronald McDonald house, our last night we stayed there.  The turtle my mom brought was a hit, and this baby slept through the night!  (and has been back to it ever since).
Photo: Resting up before we head home today. It's been a nice stay (even though it's felt like we've been here for a week) but I think we're all ready to be home.
After surgery, Cash had a couple rounds of ear infections.  We went to Boise twice to see the Dr that put his tubes in.  They sucked out all the infection each time and put him on antibiotics, ear drops, and even an ointment.  The third go around we requested to see a Dr in Twin (that was lots of trips to Boise for a 5 minute appointment).  We went to the Twin Dr twice before they decided they needed to put new tubes in his ears altogether. We did one final round of all the meds before scheduling our surgery appointment with our Boise doctor.  Magically the infection left and stayed gone!  Poor Cash had infection in both ears from January to May.  We used the booger sucker to suck out the infections that was coming out of his ears, usually twice a day.  It was gross, and none of our favorite things to do.  There were days that I thought might not ever end wit ha grumpy baby, but overall this little guy was an angel.  For having the infection as long and bad as he did- he was a trooper!
